CM Punk got emotional at his wife’s popularity.
One of the most widely known power couples in the wrestling industry, CM Punk and Lee have been together for almost a decade now. While both departed WWE around then, Punk returned in 2023, while Lee came back yesterday on the September 5 episode of SmackDown.
Soon after Lee’s thunderous return in Chicago, a rare video filmed by Ace Steel on Instagram captured CM Punk displaying his visible pride at the reception AJ Lee was getting even a day after. The very next day, the Chicago Cubs honored the former WWE Divas Champion by playing “Let’s Light It Up” at Wrigley Field, where Punk was scheduled to be.
Soon, Punk shared a post on Instagram and wrote:
When you role [sic] up to Wrigley and they’re blasting your wife’s song.”
Later, Ace Steel’s video captured Punk’s raw emotion at his wife’s success and popularity when her music was playing at the arena. The Second City Saint soaked in the tribute and sported a proud smile all over his face.
Controversial Former WWE Star Claims CM Punk Was A “B*tch To Work With”
They’re still rebuilding. You know, I’m not a big fan of that guy either. That guy sucks. He’s a bitch to work with in the back.
[Why?]
Because he just belly aches and complains. This guy complains about getting multiple World Title runs. I’ve heard from my boys that still work there that he is a headache, and this isn’t a storyline, this is the facts. So, this is what it is.”
Although both Riddle and Punk experienced difficult times with WWE, Punk has since returned to the Stamford-based wrestling promotion, whereas the current MLW World Heavyweight Champion doesn’t appear to be in the good books of the global juggernaut yet.
